The Christmas Tree Festival was great! Very beautiful displays and watched a dance performance outside. Everyone was considerate and practicing social distancing/mask wearing inside. The art exhibits themselves were interesting and unique! Will definitely come back.

Love museums, but this one surprised me with how AWESOME it was!! Although small in comparison to say, L.A. it had some REALLY COOL EXHIBITS!!! Very entertaining beautiful ️️and educational. Though mostly stunningly beautiful ️

My wife and I went to the Annual Festival of Trees exhibit. In addition to hanging art and sculptures, there are several Christmas trees and wreaths decorated in traditional and nontraditional styles throughout the museum. Fun for the whole family! Dont forget to grab lunch at the Cafe 101. Their pressed turkey and cranberry sandwich was very popular.

Theres always so many lovely pieces on display. We went today to see the Festival of Trees. There was a live piano and harp player. So many beautiful displays. The cafe is also really delicious and the staff is so friendly.

Fantastic! Loved all the exhibits the holiday trees, the silent auctions and the marketplace. Loved that they managed social distancing as well. Oh yeah and they had an amazing pianist and personmplaying the harp. I was in the heavens.

Great collection of art and sculptures. Lots of tropical themed paintings. The layout flows well. Some of the pieces make you think. Thats great art!!

Beautiful exhibits and a great chance to admire world-class art. I always learn so much about the pieces on exhibition and I walk away having learned so much of the artists themselves. Definitely a treat for anyone looking to spend a few hours in quiet awe. I have a great time whether I’m here alone or with friends and family.

Beautiful museum. We very much enjoyed the Festival of trees

I make a habit of visiting art museums in every business trip I take, and I was very pleased by my visit here. They had two special exhibits going at the time that I was eager to see: Jeffrë, and Oliver Jeffers.Its a smaller museum, but a really great mixed collection of art periods and some historical artifacts too!

Just finished a three hour gig playing Christmas music on the beautiful Steinway player piano that I was playing live that finished at 5:00 p.m.! I felt totally safe and there was steady traffic of people coming through but it wasnt too close together!

It has some lovley trees and gingerbread houses. Unfortunately COVID hit all the businesses so not the nu.ber of donations so the display was not as in the past.

A wonderful experience with great exhibits/galleries. Well maintained and accessible for wheelchairs, with space left in galleries for wheelchairs to pass through! Would definitely stop here if you have some free time on a weekend!

A great place to work as a volunteer Docent. Their training and support is outstanding. I had the privilege of leading school tourson the Norman Rockwell exhibit. The 4 Freedoms and Ruby Bridges were my favorites. One of the highlights of my time there was to meet the unique residents of Gees Bend learn the stories behind the quilts. I loved leading the African Journey museum tour...its a whole lot of fun working with kids. Susan Rosoff and Jude Moher are the absolute best people. If you get the chance to volunteer here grab it. Its the opportunity of a lifetime .

Great museum with a great collection and helpful staff.I was completing an assignment which required a photo of the artwork I was writing about, and while photography was not permitted inside when I went, a curator went and fetched an image the museum had taken that I was able to turn in instead. They really went out of their way to help.And the museum is beautiful, and has some works by unfairly-overlooked American artists.

Orlando has a lot of cultural spots if you take the time to escape the tourism district near Universal and Disney and head to some of the local museums and offerings. The Orlando Museum of art is no exception. Most metro areas have an art museum of sorts and Orlandos is a gem. This museum has exhibits that are both homed to the museum itself as well as traveling exhibits that are offered for a limited time. We visited on a day when several areas were closed to swap out one of these temporary exhibits so were looking forward to getting back to the museum this fall to see the new collections. The pieces on display come from a variety of different regions of the globe and from different time periods. They have a great collection of post impressionism art which we enjoyed.The museum was also ready to handle the health and safety of its visitors and employees and was ready to combat COVID. We visited on a weekday on purpose, so it wouldnt be too busy, and were impressed with the procedures they had in place. We do recommend this as a potential place to get out to visit while maintaining your safety since we did feel comfortable walking around the beautiful and clean facility.

Good pieces of art...excellent galery room dedicated to Joe Lewis

Absolutely a great time. First Thursdays are the bomb. I suggest everyone come out there and check out the art of socialisation the people is always live music characters craft beer great food the best wine you name it its there come on out. Support the local artists and vendors especially keep Orlando beautiful they are doing just that keeping Orlando beautiful.also come out and check out trash for trans the fashion show at SeaWorld ports of call you will love it see you there first Thursdays Orlando Museum of arts

The festival of trees and the outdoors performances of Christmas dances were wonderful.

Has very beautiful pieces of art and very historical possessions that have a story for each one.

Had a wonderful time. Love the children exhibit

Love going to the Festival of Trees at the museum every year! Beautiful event!

In addition to computer site, a person can answer a phone call...and get you all set up. Thanks Kirstan! There is lots to see, and even a gift shop. You will want to get an appointment, due to our viral time, but that just keeps us all much safer!

Lovely and peaceful environment with great art The only thing is I expected more.

Great display for Festival of the trees

First of all..... 5/5 for the modern art exhibit filled with beautiful black art. The museum even features works by Kara Walker. It was an honor coming here last weekend. And any other time that Ive come to visit.I also heard about the relocation! I hope that more works from notable artists will be featured at Lake Nona!

Love going there this time of year to see the trees.

Nice space and enjoyed The Festival of trees event.

Loved it all

My favorite of the museums in the area. I try to visit the new exhibitions at least once a month. I am a bank of America member so I go for free on the first weekend of the month. The Purvis Young showing was of the my tops to find because Im originally from South Florida. Beautiful curator here.

BeautifulClean . Hand sanitizer available at every corner.

If you like Christmas this tree display is very cool

Absolutely amazing Edward Steichen exhibit! The museum provides lots of hidden gem details and a very detailed pamphlet about the artist and his work. I’ve been a big fan of his ever since I was a little girl. This exhibit did him justice. I also really liked the Native America exhibit. It was fascinating to read about the use of each object in addition to admiring its beauty!I have to remove a star because of the very loud music they were playing through out the exhibits. It was not at all relating to the work and honestly felt very disrespectful to the artists. It’s extremely frustrating to try and read about an artists’ work and be transported by it when someone is blasting a song about a bad breakup!! Not at all what I go to an art museum to experience.There is plenty of parking on the side of the museum and a park that is perfect for a stroll. My only regret is not bringing headphones to try and block out the music they were playing all over.

The tree exhibit was very sparse this year, they should have charged half the price....if that...very poorly done. PLUS you had to pay $5 for parking on top of the $15 ticket! Do yourself a favor and skip it this year, very disappointing.

Pretty cool, variety of types of art, mostly modern. I found the African and South American artifacts interesting. Adult ticket is $15 and children (17 and under) are $5 so thats pretty reasonable

Beautiful setting, interesting exhibits and friendly staff. I wish there had been even more to see!

Orlando should be proud of its spacious museum and its strong permanent collection. It should be even prouder of the work of the museum’s curators in their presentation of individual artists. We were stunned by the quality of the Purvis Young exhibition, with its aggregation of works for maximum impact and its integration of video, adding historical context to the series on view. We were also impressed by the harmonious selection of the works of Winifred Johnson Clive, an artist whose work we had not encountered previously. It would have been nice to have a scholarly critique of her work provided to us as a link or brochure alongside the personal exhibition.

Festival of trees was a nice change

The Florida Prize an annual exhibit event celebrating and showcasing Florida artists. Exceptional selections this year.

The digital art area - really cool stuff there

You’re after year the Orlando Museum of Art put on an incredible Festival of Trees. Hundreds of designer trees and wreaths deck the halls of the museum in hopes of being purchased by one of the thousands of visitors that come through to enjoy the incredible visual experience that this festival brings

Great place...has a little bit if everything...staff is exceptional...very friendly....even security was smiling...cant beat that

My first visit to the Orlando Museum of was very casual and relaxing .Took in the Florida Highway Menartist exhibition.The Highway Men, encompasses a body of art work from Afro/American artists from Indian River County, Florida.The artists mostly from Stuart Florida, painted very vivid and colorful Florida landscapes and some rural communities.The Highway Men, would venture out on the highways and streets selling their paintings, sometimes going door to door.The Orlando Museum of Art is a great place to take in the Highway Men art exhibit.

Great venue. For art and private events.

Participated in their 1st Thursday of the month event, Hollywood Horror was the theme. There was really fascinating and cool art on display, lots of people in great costumes, fun live music and much more. I had a wonderful time and am considering volunteering for more events!

... The perception of art is more valuable than the art itself.!!!... If youve never visited an Art Museum before, because you always thought they were Too Stuffy, Too Boring, Too Much Walking, Too Intellectual, or Too Everything that you felt were against... Well think again.!!!... This IS the Art Museum that you need to visit.!!!... Its Not Huge, so you can enjoy your stroll through the galleries and let your eyes wander open your mind to interpitations of other people imaginations.!!! (but if you truly enjoy a walk, the museum is situated and surrounded by a beautiful and lush green blend of tree covered rolling hills and flats perfect for a picnic).... Its Cozy and Intimate with places to sit and enjoy the exhibits while you decide what to make of what youre looking at... And on First Thursdays ,(the first thursday of each month) they have small gatherings and exhibit openings with food and drink available, with interactive displays to enjoy for an impromptu fun and romantic evening.!!!So if youre looking for something to do and expand your mind, open your eyes and make you think... Check out the Orlando Museum of Art any day of the week, even if just to enjoy the quiet setting and color around you.

A very nice, small museum with an impressive collection. A special exhibit of African-American Florida artists known as the Highwaymen was most intetesting. A small collection of early mesoamerican artifacts was also on display. Welm worth a visit.

My friend had his wedding and reception here, it was such an amazing place to do this! it was classy and it felt like it was a movie, having a wedding in an art museum was just awesome, now I need to go back and visit the museum, so I could enjoy the art work even better and think about the memories from that awesome wedding!

Festival of Trees ... always classy and beautiful

I attended a charity event here for the Gail Foundation, and I was really impressed. Of course its easy to get to, and theres ample parking, but the venue itself is really cool! The main event was held in a circular room with a glass ceiling. Right in the middle of the room theres a Chihuly glass sculpture thats just spellbinding. The museum also had another area of exhibits open for us to view. It was a great way to take in some art & culture while having a fabulous time for a great cause. #GailFoundation

I really enjoyed it, it is a very good option to do something different and in door

High quality collection of contemporary art. I really enjoyed it. Also good more traditional works, mostly American I think. As others mention, it is smallish. Although I thought it was big enough. The biggest gallary was closed when I was there. Definitely worth a visit. 15$ entree fee is cheap.

Very good museum. Somewhat small compare to the big museum of big cities. But it still pretty fare to go and see. They have pretty good works of art where you can always learn and enjoy.

A great museum. A fun day trip and great way to get away from the fast paced Orlando theme places. Highly recommend for all ages.

Very nice museum with a large variety of art in their collection. When I visited we saw the Florida Contemporary Art exhibit which is an annual exhibition that features 10 contemporary Florida artist. Very impressed with the exhibition. They also have an interesting collection of African art, early American art and modern art.They have a nice gift shop and the museum is is located in a beautiful park which you can walk through to visit other museums and theaters.

Great location, the museum is small with great amenities. However, the price is elevated for what they show/offer. The museum should be expanded and show better pieces

Current exhibit at the OMA. Fall 2020.

The day I went was a family day and we had free admission. It was so lively and welcoming. I had walked through the entire thing, looking at all the pieces of art. Its very relaxing. On that specific day Drumlines of America were there and I was able to try out their drums. Its a nice activity/place to go if youre planning on something for the weekend or just want to do something. I had an overall great time.

Love coming here! Great art pieces. Friendly staff and an amazing gift shop where you can buy lots of items made by local artist. Clean bathrroms and not far from some great foods. Fun for any age

This museum is beautiful. The location is great, the facilities are impecable and the staff is very friendly.I enjoy when the museum has contemporary art shows, like the annual Florida Prize. Its difficult to see high quality contemporary art in Orlando, so this show is very appreciated.If you like local art, the museum has every month an event called 1st Thursdays. Stop by to enjoy Florida grown art, live music and great food.

Beautiful exhibit , we went during the festival of trees and it was amazing with all the christmas trees, wreaths and gingerbread houses. Almost everything was for sale or being raffled off, and there was great gift shops/ boutique with unique gifts, great place to get some christmas shopping done. Wonderful experience

We went specifically for the Highway Men exhibit and was in awe of their vibrant colors and depiction of old time Florida. A must see!!

Very compelling exhibits.

Great museum. Great arts. Great staff. It can take u about two hours to visits every gallery. Admission $15. No coffee shop.

Paintings were beautifully exhibited.

This was a great experience. Im growing in my appreciation for paintings and mixed media.

Skip the parks one day and take in some culture. A good portion of the museum was closed while I was there (they were getting ready for the Christmas tree exhibit) but what I saw was outstanding.

Great place, AC is ice cold, most clean bathrooms I have ever seen in FL.When it comes to ART there is nothing much you can find here though 5 rooms full of pretty recent Florida pictures and selfies of some teenager. The small room reserved for Aztec history was very interesting but after all didnt worth the money or time.

Always appreciative of good art.

Its beautiful! We love stroller tours for our little one. They have original activities for both children and adults. They often have new exhibitions. Lastly, they employ knowledgeable and friendly people.

Such a stunning place!

A number of awesome exhibits!

Went for the Florida Highwaymen exhibit. Very nice collection. Nice atmosphere.

Fun and educational! Very creative displays as well as many historical ones. Loved the gold VW van!

Really awesome place to visit. Very beautiful facility. Staff are always knowledgeable and helpful. They have a diverse amount of art from around the globe to see. Personally I love the Florida Contemporary ate Finalist exhibit. It’s very diverse and it’s nice to be able to visit with the artist when they speak about their work. Always great to spend time here.

I had the chance of visiting Orlando for a few days, but the idea of dealing with long lines and the crowded spaces of the entertainment parks was not really appealing to me, so I decided to visit instead the Morse Museum and the Orlando Museum of Art. After walking through the aisles of the second one and getting the chance of checking out both their temporary and permanent exhibition, I can say I did not waste my time by making the choice of visiting this location. I can say this was my first time getting the chance to see in person the work of Louis Dewis and Edward Steichen, both part of their temporary exhibition that are definitely breathtaking. They also have a good section dedicated to Mesoamerican and Native American Art, that is definitely accurate in its curation (I can speak as a Mexican that has visited endless archeological sites). The museum is full of activities, a great staff and a museum shop that is extremely cute and full of cool souvenirs that will make great gifts that are very rare and unique. I definitely recommend the visit if you’re looking for something else other than the big commercial parks in town.

Beautiful displays of Christmas decorations

The Quark outdoor sculpture is my favorite. Mr. Henry does impressive work. Kat, you there?

The Highway Men exhibit was fantastic

I was hoping this museum was bigger and had more to offer, it only took me and my friend less than 1h30min to get through the whole complex. The exhibits were good.

I went to see the festival of trees. It was held at the Orlando museum of art. Parking was way overpriced... And had no guarantee of actually obtaining a handicap spot for my mother. The parking alone was $7. The festival of trees seem to be smaller this year. But it was still festive and had the holidays in mind with all the beautiful this place. The carolers were great and as usual Santa looked his handsomest. Orlando museum of art is a nice place to visit on a regular day also. The art displays are nice though it isnt my cup of tea. I would recommend a visit

I came here for a Florida Highwaymen exhibition and discovered so much more. I definitely recommend it to anyone remotely interested in art, photography, abstract sculpture, even a pre- Colombian exhibit at the moment. Its a good break from electronic devices for a while and very informative.

Really enjoyed the museum. The Nick Cave installation is incredible. Definitely worth a visit.

Amazing place! Love the different art works. Sooooo unique! One person told me that Everyone is a masterpiece. Some pictures you connect with. Go check it out!

This place is not only incredible for what they offer the art community, but are incredible at hosting events. The staff is on point and helpful and are always organized and willing to help. If youre planning a simple day trip or an upcoming event, be sure to look into using this space. From someone who has seen every venue in central florida, this is a Highly recommended one.

So I won 4 tickets off the radio station and I have 2 say that this was one of the best prizes I have won off the radio.The staff us so amazing! The way everything was set up was so beautifully displayed. I would go again. Everyone should at least go once to the Christmas special. Its called Festival of Tree. I may have uploaded a lot of pictures but wanted you all to see what its like and show you a little bit more of hiw beautiful it really is.

Excellent programming throughout the year and rotating selection of both up and coming Florida artists and well-known works. Leans modern. Thoroughly enjoyed the Florida Prize opening night party, and Im curious about the New Year party, too.

I love this place! I try to go at least twice a year because they are always rotating out installments. There is a lot of indigenous Floridian and Orlandian history in the exhibits, which is so cool! A lot of different cultural exhibits too, which makes it a great place to highlight diversity! I definitely recommend this place to anyone in Orlando who likes art. The admission is also $5 for students which is nice. I took a few pictures here and there of some of the pieces!P.S. I am a local Orlando artist. If you would like to check me out, I’m on Spotify, Apple, Soundcloud, etc. as “hunterdrinkswater.” Thanks for reading my review! God bless you!

The Museum is a wonderful place for having a event. Plenty of space for dancing and having a good old time. Very clean with a great staff. Theres even security on the grounds for your safety. Thank you Keller Williams for a great night of fun.

This was a nice place for a cultural event with the family. It was my familys first time here. My child loves art. She took my phone and took pictures, lol. The admission was free because it was the Annual Smithsonian Magazine muse day. The only thing is the museum seem to be unprepared for the crowd turn out. Parking was bananas. There was no one to direct traffic or parking. The next Annual Smithsonian Magazine event is 9/21/2019 where you can go to any participating museum in the United States.

Check out the digital art area - really cool stuff there.

We’ve been to a lot of art museums, so I was really surprised when we didn’t enjoy this one as much. I spent most of that time wondering how some of these pieces were even considered art. The majority of the pieces in the museum were from the last few decades. There were a lot of political and cultural pieces. If there were a docent that could point out the significance of the pieces or the artist’s background, I think I would have enjoyed it a lot more.

Went here with my daughter to get into the Christmas spirit. It did the trick. It wasnt my first time but was the first time we went to the Festival of Trees. Beautiful display and also checked out some beautiful artwork

A lovely museum in a beautiful setting. The Dewis collection is very good. Check out the Highwaymen paintings, too.

The museum had only two exhibits open due to their Festival of Trees” event (that had ended the day before). There was no mention of it on the website so we made a trip for nothing. The entrance fee was reduced and the young lady at the desk was helpful, but it should have been listed on the website. It isnt a very big museum to begin with and it seems to cater more to members and special programing than to general public enjoyment.

Amazing art. The photos are what you can see if and when you decide to visit this amazing place. I Definitely would go back and see it again!

Had a wonderful day there. Will definitely go back again.

Amazing experience. Though the museum is not big but the collection is modern and contemporary and of course classic too. Do visit if you are in Orlando. I understand it’s not for the kids but we can build this kind of experience for the kids too. Tickets are not expensive at all. Thank you again to the museums of the city who let art and culture thrive in the community.

Really great collection. Great way to spend an afternoon.

There is definitely more then Disney and Universal parks in Orlando. Interesting selection an entire day went by without me noticing the hours pass by.

Nice little gallery with some diverse works. Small. ~1 hour to do
